Chapter 2429: The Auction Begins!

Chapter 2429: Chapter 2429: The Auction Begins!

Zhou Yu observed the surrounding environment, then said:

"No need."

"This place isn’t bad."

Hearing that, the maid immediately replied respectfully:

"Then we servants will withdraw now. If you require anything else, you can call on us anytime."

"Alright."

The maids immediately retreated respectfully.

At this moment, Qi Ling and Hai Long were no longer suppressing themselves.

Both of them excitedly wandered around the room.

Then, they went up to the pavilion, overlooking the entire Treasure Hall.

"Tsk tsk, the location here is simply perfect."

"If it wasn’t for following the master, I fear I’d never experience such treatment in this lifetime."

Qi Ling sighed.

Hai Long teased from the side:

"Didn’t you boast about how impressive your Weihai Sect was?"

"When your Weihai Sect was at its strongest, did they receive such treatment like the master?"

"Go, go, keep it to yourself. You’re bringing up what’s best left unsaid."

Qi Ling glared at him angrily.

Zhou Yu ignored their banter and went out to the pavilion, sitting down.

He surveyed the scene below.

From this vantage point, the entire hall could be seen.

Zhou Yu glanced around briefly.

The lowest ten levels of the Treasure Hall were filled with cultivators below the Void Refinement Realm.

The Human and Demon Clans were mixed together.

On this occasion, no one dared to initiate a conflict.

From the tenth to the twentieth level, essentially, the majority were those from the Human and Demon Clans above the Void Refinement Realm.

After all, speaking of the Human and Demon Clans, those with cultivation reaching the Void Refinement Realm have a certain status.

Naturally, they should be distinguished from others.

Above, were those in the Integration Realm.

Almost every expert in the Integration Realm was occupying a level.

After surveying the situation in the scene, Zhou Yu closed his eyes for some rest.

As Qi Ling and Hai Long, after their excitement subsided, stood behind Zhou Yu, waiting for the auction to begin.

Soon, the originally noisy area below suddenly fell silent.

Zhou Yu slowly opened his eyes, looking towards the crystal stage below.

Two figures appeared on the crystal stage.

One was sturdy in build, emanating intense Gang Qi, clearly an expert in Body Refinement.

The other was entirely red, with a horn on the head, clearly an expert from the Demon Clan.

At this moment, the human giant spoke:

"Fellow Daoists from the Human and Demon Clans, surely, many of you recognize me."

"I am Xuanling."

"Beside me is the Black Flood Dragon Ancestor of the Demon Clan."

"Today’s first auction of the Rare Treasure Conference will be overseen by me and Daoist Black Flood Dragon."

"I wish all Daoists will bid for their desired items."

After speaking, Xuanling Heavenly Venerate and Black Flood Dragon Ancestor vanished instantly.

Although they appeared only for a brief moment.

And, the tone of Xuanling Heavenly Venerate seemed very polite.

Yet everyone felt a heavy pressure.

It was evident that the appearance of these two giants was meant to deter.

To deter those with malicious intent.

Presumably, across the Human and Demon Clans, there shouldn’t be anyone reckless enough to cause trouble on such an occasion today.

After Xuanling Heavenly Venerate and Black Flood Dragon Ancestor stepped down, soon, a white-haired elder appeared on the high crystal platform.

"Haha, fellow Daoists, I am Tian Sui, responsible for the specifics of the auction."

"Alright, knowing that all fellow Daoists are already impatient, I won’t delay further."

"Next, the auction will officially start."

"Please bring the first treasure."

With Tian Sui’s words, someone immediately brought up the first treasure.

It was a stone flickering with black-gold hues.

Though the stone was only the size of a ping-pong ball, there were special runes on its surface.

Staring at this stone could even produce a dizzying sensation.

Tian Sui spoke:

"This stone is called Black Dream Crystal."

"A top-tier refining material, originating from the deep sea under the Eastern Sea Area of the Human Race."

"Whether crafting any Magic Treasure or Magic Artifact, as long as it’s incorporated, it can improve the quality level of the treasure."

"Additionally, it can create a special hallucinating effect, even a Void Refinement Realm expert might succumb accidentally."

"Starting bid for this item is two million Spirit Stones, each increase must not be less than fifty thousand."

"That’s the situation, now, the auction formally begins."

With Tian Sui’s words, the cultivators below erupted with immense enthusiasm.

This Black Dream Crystal was not valued by some Integration Realm or part of the Void Refinement Realm experts.

But for those below the Void Refinement Realm, it’s definitely a top-tier treasure.

Once acquired, integrate it into one’s own Magic Artifact, then, even facing a higher-tier cultivator than oneself, perhaps one might even counter and kill them.

It’s definitely a proverbial treasure worthy of being kept until the end.

"Three million!"

"Three hundred fifty thousand..."

"Four hundred thousand..."

A wave of competing bids surged momentarily, rapidly reaching eight million.

Finally, a Demon Clan expert dark all over, with a face full of fierce flesh, bought it at eight hundred seventy thousand.

This outcome greatly surprised those present. ℴ

Many human experts secretly cursed.

The Demon Clan is not adept at Artifact Refining, yet this Demon person persistently competed with the Human Race for the item, truly infuriating.

At this moment, Zhou Yu also looked at this person.

To most people, this Demon Clan’s identity is quite mysterious, none of them could discern what his true form was.

But Zhou Yu saw it clearly at a glance.

This person turns out to be from the Heavenly Demon Wolf Clan.

"This person is only in the Divinity Transformation Realm, why would he be interested in such a piece of refining material?"

Zhou Yu couldn’t understand.

Of course, it was just a fleeting thought, thereafter Zhou Yu didn’t waste further thoughts pondering.

At this moment, the second treasure had already been presented on the crystal stage.

It was a strand of thread as thin as hair, yet certainly of that golden-red color.

As soon as this treasure was unveiled, many below gasped in surprise.

"This is... Flame Gold Foil!"

"Who could’ve thought it’s Flame Gold Foil, truly astonishing."

Many stared fervently at the strand of thread, with a wish to rush up and grab it.

At this moment, Qi Ling and Hai Long looked at the item with curiosity.

"Master, what is this thing?"

"Why do these people look like lustful men seeing beauties!"

"Nonsense!"

Hai Long looked helplessly at Qi Ling.

At this moment, Zhou Yu smiled faintly and said:

"This item is indeed extraordinary."

"It is said to originate from the Fire Phoenix Clan, reportedly a silk spit out exclusively by a spiritual insect of the Fire Phoenix Clan."

"Such a spiritual insect spins only one strand in a hundred years, thus, the item is considered a very rare treasure."

"For those cultivating Fire Attribute Techniques, this is a top-tier treasure, not only can it increase the power of Divine Skills, but also speed up the cultivation process."

"Moreover, extracting a single strand and detonating it individually can provide immense power, serving a crucial effect when needed."

"And among the general populace, practitioners of Fire Attribute Techniques are the majority, therefore, the crowd is so excited and frenzied..."
